2025 Annual Conference
ADHD and Associated Eating Disorders in Primary Care Practice: Diagnosis and Management
Saturday 18 October 2025 · The Langham, Melbourne
The clinical environment for ADHD in Australia is changing with the role of the GP becoming more significant. The GP-led conference, incorporating presentations from psychiatrists, psychologists, paediatricians and specialised GPs, aims to provide primary care clinicians with the necessary tools to diagnose and manage ADHD.
Clinical practice
Join us to gain essential skills in both the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD in primary care.
Safe practice
Understand the current and changing state-to-state and Federal regulatory environment of ADHD management.
Who should attend?
General practitioners, paediatricians, psychologists, psychiatrists and dietitians.
Why you should join the conference
ADHD and eating disorders became part of everyone’s clinical practice, lives and communities. Inclusion means not only recognition. Inclusion in healthcare means knowledge and care for everyone.
We include. We know. We care. We do it safely.
ADHD-BED Integrated®
Group of international and Australian experts
The ADHD-BED Integrated group started its journey in 2019, with a small project aiming to help people who needed assessment and treatment for ADHD, co-morbid eating disorders and other health needs. The group grew as the demand expanded. We learnt together with our patients. They learnt with us. We watched the expansion of our large community of colleagues, patients and their families across the whole of Australia. We are now launching our national knowledge sharing. We are excited that you are coming along, to learn and share, to support thousands of Australians who need you.
